Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell Returning to Comedy
From Sweet Home Alabama to This Means War, Reese Witherspoon is no stranger to comedies. She has received critical acclaim with her starring roles in comedies and dramas. She has been in the Apple TV+ series The Morning Show. The upcoming untitled wedding comedy film will star Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell. Ferrell is a comedy veteran, so this film is within his wheelhouse. There are no details on which roles the two actors will play, but it definitely won’t be anything they can’t handle. The Saturday Night Live alum Will Ferrell most recently starred in Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar and Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga. No other cast members have been announced for the Amazon untitled wedding comedy film. There is no release date for the film either, so fans will have and see how Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell will play these roles.
